Special meeting of GG council Tuesday Little Saigon, Koreatown landmarks idea A special meeting of the Garden Grove City Council will be held Tuesday evening.

On the agenda are several items, including: • consideration of a request by Council member Dina Nguyen to place on the Aug. 13 meeting agenda a proposal to designate the Korean Business District (commonly known as Koreatown), the Little Saigon area and the Grove District as honorary city landmarks.

• an update on the planned Vietnam War Museum on Harbor Boulevard.

• financing options for the proposed Great Wolf water park hotel project on Harbor Boulevard.

The Korean business district generally runs along Garden Grove Boulevard between Brookhurst Street and Beach Boulevard. It is also the location of the annual Korean Festival.

Garden Grove’s Little Saigon is generally located along Brookhurst Street, south of the Garden Grove Freeway, and along Westminster Avenue between Magnolia and Euclid streets.

The Vietnam War mu-

seum is still in the planning stages. It is intended to be housed in a cityowned building that was originally a Mazda car dealership.

The Great Wolf water park is planned for a site on the west side of Harbor just north of Garden Grove Boulevard. It would combine a large hotel with an attached enclosed water park for hotel patrons.

The meeting will begin at 6:30 p.m. in the council chambers in the Community Meeting Center, 11300 Stanford Ave.

REV. ROBERT H. SCHULLER, founder of the Crystal Cathedral.

Rev. Schuller out of hospital, recovered from a home fall GARDEN GROVE, (AP) – Crystal Cathedral founder and former televangelist the Rev. Robert H. Schuller is out of the hospital after a fall at his Southern California home last month.

Schuller’s daughter, Carol Schuller Milner, told The Associated Press on Thursday that her father needed physical

therapy and was alert and walking.

The 86-year-old televangelist, who started the popular “Hour of Power’’ broadcast and built the glass-paned Crystal Cathedral at Chapman Avenue and Lewis Street, fell on July 20 at his home in Orange.

Schuller once attracted millions of viewers

worldwide with his sermons broadcast from the Crystal Cathedral, but in later years his ministry suffered from a decline in viewership and donations.

Schuller resigned from the ministry’s board in 2012, two years after the famed church filed for bankruptcy.

New president is chosen for the G. Grove chamber After a long search, the Garden Grove Chamber of Commerce has hired a new president and chief executive officer.

David B. Ahern will start today (Monday) at the chamber office on Main Street in downtown Garden Grove.

According to the chamber, Ahern has experience in business and government, having worked with other chambers of commerce, elected of-

ficials, non-profit organizations and as a police commissioner.

He replaces Jeremy Harris, who resigned earlier this year to take a post with the Long Beach Chamber of Commerce.

The chamber, founded in 1905 as the Garden Grove Improvement Association, is the oldest civic organization in the city.

SANTA ANA (AP) – A new partnership between The Orange County Sheriff’s Department and school district officials aims to improve safety within the county’s 28 school districts in the event of a violent attack.

Sheriff’s spokesman Lt. Jeff Hallock said Thursday the partnership was prompted by discussions following the school shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut in December.

The partnership will be led by the Orange County Intelligence and Assessment Center, a so-called “fusion center’’ opened in 2007 under a federal initiative to gather local multi-agency intelligence

to prevent terrorist attacks.

Hallock says the center hopes to visit all public and private schools in Orange County over the next two years.

The visits will include assessments of each school’s vulnerabilities.

The partnership will also collect maps of schools for faster response times.

Unarmed transient shot, killed by Santa Ana police SANTA ANA (AP) – A man was unarmed when he was shot and killed by an officer after a confrontation and a foot chase in a Santa Ana strip mall, police said.

Hans Arellano, a 22-year-old transient, was shot once in the torso by a 13-year department veteran whose name was

withheld, interim police Chief Carlos Rojas said at a news conference Wednesday.

Rojas says the officer had a stun gun, but when asked why that wasn’t used said only that all aspects of the incident were under investigation.

Fatal Santa Ana shooting Continued from page 1

“When that officer pulls that trigger, we want to make sure there is fear for their life and that any use of force, especially deadly use of force, is handled appropriately,’’ he said.

Another officer involved in the chase did not shoot.

About 20 family members and friends stood outside police headquarters as officials spoke to reporters, according to the press reports. His sister, Tania Arellano, questioned why officers didn’t turn to a less-lethal use of force.

“Nobody deserves to die like that,’’ she said.

Police said Arellano, who has a second-degree burglary conviction, was being combat-

ive Tuesday in the McDonald’s parking lot when police arrived.

He ran for about a half-mile then had a confrontation with police that led to the shooting outside a juice shop.

Richard Schmidt told reporters that he had gotten into a drunken fight with Arellano shortly before police arrived, and that was likely one of the things that brought officers to the scene.

Schmidt, 50, said that Arellano was carrying a sandwich from McDonald’s and a bottle of vodka when he yelled an insult at Schmidt’s friend, leading to a confrontation and fight.

Schmidt said neither he nor Arellano were badly hurt, and both said “we’re cool’’ after the fight ended.

“There was no reason to shoot him,’’ Schmidt said. “He didn’t have a weapon ... I don’t think he was a bad guy.’’

Arellano’s sister told the reporters Arellano had lived all over the area, sometimes staying with her or other family members, sometimes renting rooms and sometimes staying on the street.
